SEMCO Chosen as Surfacing Vendor by Contractor for Apple Computer Japan Headquarters24 January 2006
Plasticon International Inc. (OTC: PLNI) announced today that SEMCO Manufacturing, Inc. was chosen as a surfacing vendor by the contractor for Apple Computer Japan Headquarters showcase demo and reception area in Tokyo. Apple Computer Japan is located in a 51-story building in the Shinjuku sector of Tokyo. Plasticon International, Inc. recently completed the acquisition of SEMCO.
According to SEMCO Manufacturing, the company was chosen for the project because its environmentally responsible, dielectric, waterproof surface cement system offers unlimited creative freedom with design, texture and color and their surfacing solutions exceed Japanese industry environmental standards for indoor air quality. "Our innovative surfacing solutions require no waste disposal, and are distinguished in the surfacing industry by their versatility, durability and beauty," said Samel Sem, President and founder of SEMCO Manufacturing. "Most importantly, our unique surfacing solutions have a competitive advantage over other surfacing products in that they cross link chemically to virtually any material they are being bonded to, and reinforce the density of almost any surface, including concrete, wood, foam, metal, asphalt, rubber and tile of all types. We take pride in the fact that our products met Apple Computer Japan's stringent design requirements from both a creative and environmental standpoint. Apple Computer is known as one of the most image-savvy companies worldwide, and it speaks volumes that our products were selected by the contractor and approved in the selection of materials for the project."
According to Jim Turek, President and CEO of Plasticon International, Inc., "We are thrilled that SEMCO was chosen by the contractor as a surfacing vendor for the Apple Computer Japan showcase demo project. SEMCO fits perfectly into the Plasticon family of companies. Both Plasticon and SEMCO are green companies that have consistently used environmentally responsible manufacturing practices before it was fashionable. Both Plasticon and SEMCO are pioneers in their fields and offer unique benefits to the construction industry. We believe this is just the beginning of SEMCO's growth in the $100 billion+ surfacing marketplace. As an established leader in surfacing, we believe that SEMCO's products will continue to be chosen for high-profile projects worldwide, because they offer the most environmentally friendly, creative, versatile solutions in the surfacing industry today. The fact that SEMCO's advanced product lines cross link chemically with virtually any surface they are applied to distinguishes them from any other surfacing company in the marketplace. As we work with SEMCO to expand their marketing efforts, we believe that SEMCO will become the largest profit center for Plasticon International, Inc. in the years ahead."
SEMCO Manufacturing, based in Las Vegas, Nevada, since 1981, has provided their surfacing products to many of the city's most impressive showcase projects, including a number of 5-star luxury resorts. Their eclectic customer base also includes high-profile commercial, public and private clientele. Projects have ranged from critical government facilities (the flooring of the Pentagon) to elementary schools, community centers and many prominent parks and public works projects to the Bioshpere project, where the SEMCO team provided the materials for the creation of a lush, fully functioning indoor rainforest. SEMCO's product line is noted for its incredible durability which is why it is not only extensively used indoors, but also on heavily trafficked outdoor walkways, in extreme outdoor weather, freeze/thaw conditions, and in chlorinated pool water and on rugged exteriors. SEMCO Manufacturing has offices in the U.S., Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia.
Plasticon's acquisition of SEMCO Manufacturing, Inc. has been completed, and is now awaiting SEC approval.
